About the Artist:
Kenneth Miller Adams, born in Kansas in 1897, began his art career in Topeka in 1913, studying under artist G.M. Stone. He later continued his education at the Art Institute of Chicago before serving in World War I. After his service, Adams studied at the Art Students League in New York City and then traveled abroad to immerse himself in Italian and French art.
In 1924, Adams returned to Kansas, where his friend Andrew Dasburg encouraged him to move to Taos, New Mexico. There, Adams became the youngest and final member of the Taos Society of Artists. He taught at the University of New Mexico in Taos starting in 1929, later becoming a full professor in 1963 after moving to Albuquerque. Adams was known for his contributions to American regionalism, and his works continue to reflect the cultural richness of the Southwest.
This original lithograph is a fine example of his mid-20th-century work and makes a distinctive addition to any collection of figurative or American art.

By Doel Reed
Located in Denver, CO
Nude with Winter Bouquet 11/30 is a vintage aquatint etching by American printmaker Doel Reed (1894-1985), created in 1972. This exquisite work depicts a reclining female figure, elegantly posed alongside a vase of flowers and flowing drapery, capturing the quiet intimacy of the scene. The etching is signed by Reed in the lower right margin and numbered 11 of a limited edition of 30 in the lower left margin. The print is presented in a custom frame with archival materials, with outer dimensions of 20 ½ x 26 ¼ x 1 inches and an image size of 11 ¾ x 17 ¾ inches.
This stunning piece is illustrated in Doel Reed: The Graphic Works by Harry B. Cohen and Ann L. Rogers (page 83, plate 124), showcasing Reed's mastery in the aquatint technique.
The etching is part of several esteemed collections, including the University of Wyoming, Museum of Fine Arts in Santa Fe, University of Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State University. It has also been exhibited in notable shows, including the 147th National Academy of Design in New York, Indiana Printmakers in 1972, the 32nd Annual Print Show at the Philbrook Museum in 1972, and the 53rd Annual Exhibition of the Society of American Graphic Artists in New York in 1975.
About the Artist:
Doel Reed’s dedication to printmaking and his unique approach to aquatint solidified his reputation as a master of the medium. Early in his career, Reed became fascinated with Goya's aquatints, which inspired him to teach himself the technique and establish a lifelong passion for creating etched works. Known for his emotionally charged landscapes marked by dramatic tonal contrasts, Reed’s prints evoke a sense of mystery, blending modernist forms with a romantic, moody atmosphere.
Born in Indiana and initially studying architecture, Reed’s understanding of structure deeply influenced his artistic style, which he described as architectonic. He later transitioned to fine arts, studying at the Cincinnati Art Academy, but his studies were interrupted by World War I. A gas attack during the war temporarily blinded him, and the lasting effects of the attack led him to seek the dry climates of Oklahoma and New Mexico for relief.
After the war, Reed discovered Goya’s aquatints...
